GROUND BROKEN FOR LANDSIDE COMPONENT OF GPH CRUISE DEAL IN ST JOHN’S

Ground has been broken for the landside development in St John’s under the Global Ports Holding deal with the Government.

The new facilities to be constructed are set to further turbocharge the growth of the cruise tourism sector and add further cachet to brand Antigua and Barbuda.

Both the Government and Global Ports holding are bullish on the prospects, as construction is set to begin shortly on gleaming new facilities.

The mega construction project is set to create hundreds of construction jobs and transform the experience for cruise visitors and locals.
